can anyone recommend cheap kitchen places?

[picpoul]

We want to sort our horrible, old, mouldy, collapsing kitchen out. Absolute max budget is £4000 including fitting, decoration, appliances, flooring EVERYTHING...am being told that it's not possible to do for £4k and I am stubbornly refusing to believe it.
Anyone know where we could go with such a tight budget?
TIA.

IKEA I think.

My kitchen in my last house was from ikea. Cost just over 2K for a biggish kitchen and I installed it myself. Bloody hard work but I was spurred on by my neighbour laughing at me saying a little girl like me couldn't fit a kitchen. I bloody did and it looked fab. Considering doing it again.

We got ours from stevenswood kitchens, they make them onsite and our very reasonable.

We fitted an IKEA kitchen for approx £500. It wasn't a huge number of units and it was their 2nd cheapest range of doors and no appliances.

It wasn't particularly hard to do - basic flat pack assembly for the units. We did the worktop ourselves too and if I were to do it over again I'd have got a professional in for that - partly because we didn't have the right tools.

Tbh, unless you want something fancy or have your heart set on a particular look then the components of the kitchen isn't really where the cost is. The state of your floor and walls will all have a bearing on how much it costs to make it look good, and if you pay for fitting then that's most of your budget gone.

What appliances do you need? A new set of white goods, hob/oven leaves you a grand down already.

Hey thanks everyone.

We've gone with bettaliving as they've dropped their original quote down to £2500. Amazing what a bit of saying 'Go away you are too expensive' does!
